StarTech 1 ft Cat 5e Blue Cable

This StarTech M45PATCH1BL is a 1 ft Cat 5e Ethernet cable in blue. It is built for short Fast Ethernet patch connections between network devices. Colored hoods support departmental colour coding in structured cabling environments. The cable is supplied new and tested for Near End Crosstalk limits.

Suited for short rack or desk links.

The 1 ft length fits tight spaces inside cabinets or between adjacent ports. Installers who need colour-coded patch leads for documentation will use the blue hood. Buyers who need cables for workstation drops across a room or between floors should select a longer length. This cable does not support gigabit speeds.

Cat 5e rating defines the bandwidth limit

The Cat 5e classification sets the cable’s certified performance ceiling. It determines whether the link can carry the data rate your network equipment requires. Check the switch or NIC specification against the Cat 5e rating before purchasing. No other specification overrides this limit.

Questions about this item

Does the cable come with any accessories or do I need to buy connectors separately?

The cable is supplied as a complete assembly with RJ45 plugs on both ends, so no extra connectors are required.

The listing shows Cat 5e in a 1 ft blue version — is that the only option available?

This specific model is a 1 ft blue Cat 5e cable; other lengths or colours are sold under different part numbers.

What real-world speed can I expect from a Cat 5e cable this short?

Cat 5e supports Gigabit Ethernet, so the cable will carry 1 Gbps traffic without bottleneck over its 1 ft run.
